There are truly some positives that came out of lockdown and finding a way to help flailing hospitality businesses was one of them. Let me introduce to you Mealzo : A Scotland-based IT company providing a wide range of services such as Electronic Point of Sale (EPOS), Self-Ordering Kiosk, Branded Website, and several other services for Scottish hospitality businesses.

During lockdown the idea of the Mealzo food ordering portal was initiated due to high demand from their existing partners being overcharged by high commissions.

MEALZO - THE ZERO COMMISSION ONLINE FOOD ORDERING PORTAL

And so Mealzo started to help over 1000 Scottish takeaways and restaurants In Edinburgh, Glasgow, Livingston, Bathgate, Paisley, Perth, Aberdeen, Dundee, Airdrie, and Motherwell with a more affordable way to get food into the hungry bellies of their customers.

As we are all aware, larger delivery companies like Deliveroo, JustEasts, Ubereats etc all made an absolute fortune during the pandemic off desperate hospitality businesses just trying to stay afloat in 2020/2021. They charge extortionate commission fees leaving very little margins for any profit. Mealzo decided to change this and introduced 0% commission on all food orders!

By eliminating commission, Mealzo opens up the market to allow takeaways and restaurants to offer customers exclusive offers and discounts of up to 50%. The partners pay a small fee to Mealzo which is no where near the commission rate from the large delivery companies. It’s a win win win!

All that’s left to do is to get the public involve - YOU - and its as simple as downloading the Mealzo app – available for Google's Android and Apple's iOS devices - and add your postcode or visit their website www.mealzo.co.uk.

It’ll bring up a list of takeaways and restaurants around you that have joined Mealzo and all you need to do is choose your favourite dishes, order and pay.

Mealzo, also goes that little bit further with the Mealzo Local Hero Award.

Each month they collaborate with one of their partners who have given back to their community; those that have made that extra bit of effort in supporting local - for instance providing donations to local food banks. Mealzo joins forces with the hospitality business to provide help to local charities in the area.

With so many positive and feel good vibes, there really is nothing stopping you from using this app. We all need to help each other, and for foodies, this is one of the easiest ways to go about it!
